Lost power in the Element 2 exits before Gigi's house in Camarillo! We've been friends for 30 years, and I haven't seen her in way too long, but it's like nothing has changed. True sign of friendship!

Gigi's husband Joe found us the parts we need! Their neighbor did a diagnostic for the problem and we drove 40mph to San Diego.

Woke up at 7am at our hotel in Ocean Beach and drove to Autozone for the part. Drove back to hotel, checked out and took the car to a mechanic.

Acai Bowl for breakfast.
heather.rosner:
Sign outside the Acai bowl place across the street from the mechanic.
heather.rosner:
Still in a good mood... little did we know.
heather.rosner:
Mechanic added oil and told us the issue was fixed. Returned the part to Autozone. Shopped for groceries at Gross Out and got on the road. Lost power again. Drove back to mechanic, went back to Autozone for the part, and he finally fixed it after an entir

Mechanic grease on soap.

Decided it was not a good idea to drive down a dirt road, in the desert, in another country, at night without a phone signal. I was dead set to keep going but this was probably the most reasonable decision of the trip. I set a 5:45am alarm to get back on

Allen trying to help me set up my ridic hard camera that died as soon as we go to the desert.

A jeep rolled by and scared them off but I threw them each a piece of carrot.

Wild Burro's! Video by Allen.

It was not a great idea to do this trip without a 4 wheel drive vehicle. We were the only people out there without proper clearance. Volume up to hear these big fucking rocks scrape the under carriage.
heather.rosner:
An oasis in the desert!
heather.rosner:
These rocks are gigante... ouch!

Later we will take a hot mud bath.

This is about to be the most refreshing moment of the trip so far!

A day behind schedule and sleep deprived but so fucking happy.

The attractive Europeans from Mexico City took photos for us.
heather.rosner:
Evening hike to the waterfall, but it got dark and we were tired.

Evening hike with me in it.
heather.rosner:
Julie looking chic!
heather.rosner:
Forgot to mention donkeys and raccoons...

This hot mud is gross and we sank at least a foot into it but our feet will feel soft for days.

Swim at dusk.
